Your looking at me like i just finger banged your cat

After an all nighter i felt the only way to recover was to sit in the park with my mate and lie for a long period of time.
Somehow managed to muster the strength to take some photo's. Nothing spesh but here we go.

 

 

  

the few pic we had from the gig the night before, i'd say who was good and who wasn't but i remember so little.  All i remember is joker, and possibly Tomb Crew.  Great night though.

BIG

My quiet night in last night didn't happen instead i am currenty still dying on my sofa trying to piece together last night.
Speaking of dying...
this is deffinately my tune of the day, and this video is magnificent.

I <3 CEX

So i'm predicting that with my night off tomorrow its going to be a quiet once, so anticipating this i thought i'd pop to town and get some new DVDs to add to the already rediculously large selection i have.  I refuse to spend over £10 for dvds these days unless theyre really worth it so i went to CEX. Which could just be my new favouritw shop, needless to say i came out with about 9 DVDs but the bargain of the day has to go to The Wackness! for £3!!!!!!
So chuffed with this purchase, it's one of my favourite films, the sound track, the vibe, the characters, make this film so so so good.  Luke Shapiro could be the love of my life.
I haven't read the book but intend to if the films good the book can only be better.
So as a tribute to The Wackness and early 90's hip hop; song of the day is

Hopeless Feathers

Turns out unpacking things is alot more handy than just routing through boxes for things because today i found the accompying picture to the owl sketch from the Ted Hughes pictures.
The scanners missed half of it off but with no camera this is the only way i can get it up.

I also had a very productive day making some t shirts/getting very light headed off spraypaint and bleach.
However again without the use of a camerea i can't show it properly but i have scanned in as much as i can.  The t shirt is a size small and say Ray Gun = Way Fun along the top and 4 more years at the bottom right.
I'm not going to explain the t shirt however as I said I'm feeling the 80's punk today so maybe Reagan Youth had some influence over the drawing...

 

It looks less crude on but this scanner holds no prisoners, i basically used spray paint and fabric pens.  I might consider refining it and making a screen print out of it when i get back to uni.

The Rat Cage

For anyone who knows me they will tell you that I am the biggest Beastie Boys fan they know.  This is something i am very proud of, I am obsessed with this band, from their early punk work to now i have it and love it all.
So i was cruising youtube this morning and came across this little gem from back in 1985.  Honestly my style icons right here, and my crush on Ad Rock just grew to a new level after watching this video.
I was really gutted to hear about the pushback of their new album and tour and really sad to hear about MCA's cancerous tumour.  I hope he gets better soon and will back to what he does best in no time.
Now watch this.





I'm feeling an 80's punk vibe today
Therefore song of the day goes to....

Last Days of Nietzche

Astounding

Collectively Dancing in a Gang with a Panda

Animal Collective recently played in london, for which I endured a 7 hour and 36 minute journey in the hottest coach known to man down to see them but it was so beyond worth it.
Gang Gang Dance supported and i honestly thought that when Animal Collective came on they wouldnt be able to top them.  Beginning with Vaccum which is one of my favourite tracks and following with house jam amongst others Liz Bougatsos, has a great and mesmorizing stage presence that from the first bang on the drums a shiver went through every essence of me and i knew this would be no ordianary gig.
So when Animal Collective came on, my mind was literally blown starting with Grace and moving to My Girls the synths and echoing and haunting voice of Panda Bear And AV Tar honetly took me to another dimmension.  For any one who missed the gig, missed out on an estorteric wonder.

But the main reason behind this post is not to brag about how amazing the gig was but to brag about a little vinyl which has been warmly welcomed to my collection Panda Bear's "Person Pitch" LP.
Panda Bear being one part of Animal Collective; I was obviously going to like it but this LP is beautiful, quirky and wonderful in ways i never expected.
Standout tracks for me..well its hard to say but the epic 'Bro's' and the equally if not more so epic Good Girl/Carrots which contains a sample of Kraftwerk's "Ananas Symphonie" that weaves beautifully within the track.
I'm afraid reviewing things is not a forte of mine, i'm more of a try it for yourself kind of person so with that said i say pick up this vinyl if you can, its pretty hard to come by in shops but i'm sure is available online.

 

Even the artwork is amazing!
